As you’re reading this, our trusty staff member Ron (Ronald, Ronnie…whatever you prefer to call him) is jetting off to Jamaica. While most people envision Jamaica as a relaxing beach vacation, Ron has a different motive for his travels.
“I’m going to a town called Harmons, Jamaica, with a Mizzou Campus Ministry group called Veritas. They partnered with a program called Won by One."
Some of our club members might have received letters from Ron himself expressing his interest in participating in this mission trip. Others of you might have heard it trickle through the conversation of some of our ladies card groups. In support of his adventure, CCC members made donations of money and clothing to help Ron reach his fundraising goals as well as his 100-pound limit of donated clothing he can travel with.
Throughout his seven-day trip, Ron will be assisting in building houses for the people of the village, educating the children and of course delivering the much-needed clothing and toiletry donations he has collected.
“I want to say thank you to everyone here for supporting me in this endeavor. Hopefully, I can spread the word of God to Harmons and help myself grow better in Christ as well. See you all when I get back!”
We wish Ron all the best on his travels, and we can’t wait to hear how the generous donations from the members of our club helped to make their mission trip a success.
